On November 21st, 2022 Equity Bank Uganda Limited announced that it had appointed Mr. Anthony Kituuka as its new Managing Director, pending approval by the Central Bank. Kituuka, 47, had served as the bank’s Executive Director since April 2016. Here are a few more facts that you probably didn’t know about the incoming Managing Director of Uganda’s 3rd largest lender; 5th largest by deposits and profits and the 6th largest by assets.

15 years of East African banking experience: Anthony possesses rich banking experience at the senior level, having worked for some of Africa’s biggest brands, in Uganda and the region. He started his banking career at Absa Bank Uganda (then Barclays Bank Uganda), as Head of Business Banking, in the Commercial Division, from where he joined KCB Bank Uganda as the Head of Corporate Banking. He would later join KCB Group head offices in Nairobi, to take up the Head of Global Banking role. It is from KCB that he was recruited by the Equity Group for the Executive Director, Regional Subsidiaries role. From there, he came back to Uganda as Executive Director for Equity Bank Uganda.

Non-Banking Audit, Sales & Commercial Experience: Before joining the banking industry, he worked for the LafargeHolcim-owned Hima Cement in Uganda, first as a Sales Manager, then Customer Services Manager. But before that, Anthony also had auditing experience, having worked as an Audit Senior at Deloitte & Touche, one of the big 4 audit firms.
